Jerry worked as an industrial painter for Owen’s Corning Fiberglass for over 25 years followed by General Electric until his retirement.

 

An avid Dallas Cowboys fan, Jerry loved all sports. Along with his wife, he always supported his four sons cheering them on at all of their sporting events. Jerry volunteered as a coach at Barrington Little League where he coached each of his sons throughout the years. Whatever the sport, Jerry could be regularly be found at the games of his grandchildren as well, offering helpful “pointers”, whether or not he was a master of the sport.

 

Jerry was a devoted and loyal family man, bringing his unique sense of humor to any situation. His proudest moment as a father was his four boys all graduating from Drexel University and becoming successful engineers.

 

After his children were grown, he and Jean loved to travel, especially “up-country” to Lancaster

County, PA, as well as senior bus trips to the casino. He loved to tinker in his workshop and his family cherishes the woodwork creations that “Pop” created.
